"Pending Upload" Microsoft Office for MAC 2019

Sometimes the sharepoint / onedrive files get stack with "Pending Upload" in office product like word, excel and powerpoint.

Snoop the files that word/excel/powerpoint is trying to open using:

sudo opensnoop | grep OfficeFileCache




Once the files are identified, delete/move or rename the files from the Cache directory:


~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Word/Data/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/AppData/Microsoft/Office/16.0/OfficeFileCache/0/0


~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Excel/Data/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/AppData/Microsoft/Office/16.0/OfficeFileCache/0/0


~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Powerpoint/Data/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft/AppData/Microsoft/Office/16.0/OfficeFileCache/0/0



PS: Stop all running Apps eg: ClamXAV, LittleSnitch and others to reduce output from opensnoop.
